The greenhouse, opened in 2006, offers excellent conditions for research. There are 43 independent units, partly fully climatised. The area of the greenhouse is approximately 2500 m2. The compartments vary in size from 19 m2 to 102 m2.

Growth chambers and cabinets

In addition, GLS has excellent growth facilities (climate chambers and
cabinets, plant growth chambers) at its disposal. They are part of the new
laboratory infrastructure at the Science Park for experimenting with plant
pathogens, insects and plant viruses.

GMO

Both the greenhouse and other growth facilities have legal permits for
research on genetically modified organisms. Therefore substantial parts of the
green house and climate chambers comply with biosafety levels for work with
transgenic biological materials. We can perform experiments at 4 different
biosafety levels: pk1, pkm1, pkm2 and pkm3.
